Benighted, it’s been a few months…I’ve been wondering how you’re doing.
Thanks for letting go…trusting yourself and knowing: to whom it matters, it doesn’t matter.
You, your peace, health and joy are all that matters…and I’m grateful you trust us to share your grief…openly. It’s a lesson for us—for all around you. I can’t even begin to imagine what unresolved depth of pain your parents carry…their words desperately sought to make it go away.
How well I know and see: pretending something doesn’t hurt is the prescription to ensure it’ll hurt even longer and deeper. Shame, guilt and fear are liars that keep us from connecting…unleashing…and then healing.
So glad Terry shined that light for you…so glad you posted.
Biggest hug…my deepest condolences for the loss of these loved ones—
You taught me some important lessons and reminders I need to work on. Rest assured, kind friend—we all need to learn to let go. 💜much love!!!
